I rode an elephant!

Yesterday my Mum and her friend Judy headed back to Australia and have now arrived safely back home. The last few days of their visit we jam-packed full of activity - a luscious lunch at a pretty impressive resort on Saturday, last minute manicures and pedicures on Monday, and the highlight: a visit to see some elephants on Sunday. 

The Bali Elephant Safari Park is a conservation project for endangered Sumatran elephants and is located just north of Ubud. It took nearly two hours to get there but it was definitely worth it. First activity of the day: elephant ride!!


Next, we saw the elephant's talent show where they posed for us, painted, showed off their tricks, and even played some soccer :)



All that showing off makes elephants hungry, so next up we got to feed them...


Then it was time for us to eat, so off we went to the park's restaurant for lunch - and just in time! Soon after we sat down it started to pour and didn't look like it was going to stop anytime soon. 

I really enjoyed our morning with the elephants, it's certainly an experience I'll never forget. They truly are majestic animals.


Until next time x
